How the Clone Wars should have gone, given that Anakin was canonically a slave. (wtf Lucas?)
Rex: Yeah, we all have inhibitor chips. They make us less aggressive--
Anakin: You have slave chips.
Rex: No, inhibitor chips.
Anakin: Slave chips. They all need to be removed. Kix! Do you have a scanner?
Kix: Er, no. You need a level 5--
Anakin: Nevermind. I'll build one. They need to come out immediately.
::slave chip comes out of one trooper who volunteered, because ARCs be crazy:: (Fives. It was Fives. Because Fives.)
Anakin: Huh. Why doesn't this have any explosive?
Rex: I *told* you. They're inhibitor chips.
Anakin: Nuh uh. Slave chips. They gotta do something else.
::a little later, some slicing, orders discovered::
Anakin: Slave chips! All of them out!
Rex: Okay, but this is just one itty bitty bit of the GAR. There's 3 million of us.
Anakin: *Lots* more scanners.
Rex: ::facepalm::
::Scanners sent to every ship in the fleet and the Guard::
Fives: So who activates the chips?
Anakin: Depur.
Fives: ::thinking that this is a reasonable name rather than a generic term for a slave master:: Where do we find them? And can we kill them?
Cue Kamino being invaded, the Kaminoans interrogated (and Nala Se summarily executed), and relevant information discovered.
Rex: So it's the Chancellor.
Anakin: No, he's my good friend.
Rex: …
Anakin: I'm depukrata. (The slave word for a freed slave who enslaves others.)
Fives: ::no concept of natborn names:: Everyone! The general's Depukrata now!
Everyone: Hello, Depukrata!
Anakin: ::anakin.exe has stopped working::
Anakin: ::incoherent frothing rage:: Let's fuck some shit up!
The 501st: ::cheers, gets out the heavy ordinance::
Palpatine gets wrekt. (Fuck that guy.)
